This volume consists of papers presented at the International Colloquium on Buckling of Shell Structures, on Land, in the Sea and in the Air, Lyon, France, 17-1

Thin-walled metal shell structures are highly efficient in their use of material, but they are particularly sensitive to failure by buckiling. Many different fo

This book provides engineering tools for the design of shells against buckling. A simplified approach is given in a number of cases which are not addressed in c

As an expert in structure and stress analysis, the author has written extensively on functionally graded materials (FGMs), nonlinear vibration and dynamic respo
